Embracing Collisions to Increase Fidelity of Sensing Systems with COTS Tags
summary
COFFEE extracts per-tag channel state from collided RN16 transmissions on COTS passive RFID by parallel channel estimation and iterative signal cancellation, then identifies tags by matching extracted channels to historical channel fingerprints without decoding. Prototype uses a USRP reader with C1G2 tags and achieves up to 7.33x time-resolution gain (3.42x median average), beating prior physical-layer methods that only handle 3–5 tags. Error stays low for static scenarios but rises with faster tag motion, and the system requires no tag modification.
